Lauki ( Bottlegourd ) patties

This recipe is my innovation. As I don’t know what to do with this veggie other than gravy. So I tried this way . all my family members liked the dish and no one find it was made with lauki. I had combined capsicum in this , which gives unique aroma to the dish.as all know this veggie contains a lot of water content which helps in weight reduction.

Requirement :

Grated lauki – 1 cup

Capsicum (finely chopped ) – ½ cup

Garam masala - ½ tsp

Chilly powder -1 tbs

Potato (boiled) -1

Panner (grated) – 2 tbs

Gram flour – 2 tbs

Bread crumbs

Oil

Method :

Heat oil in a pan , sauté lauki and capsicum till partially cooked.

Add chili powder , salt , garam masala and sauté well.

Add smashed potato and panner , mix well.

Now sprinkle gram flour and mix well. This enhances taste.

Make into small round shaped patties , spread in bread crumbs and shallow fry.
